[b]South-East Block: Roman Cassidy[/b]

As the grey Goleyeith stood before him, Roman felt a sense of dread he hadn't since his childhood. The overwhelming threat, the preemptive sense of defeat, the hopelessness. This monster was nothing like the raiders or highwaymen he hunted down in Europe, but it did remind him of another unstoppable beast form his past: John Cassidy, his father. But someone was able to stop John Cassidy, and the same man would stop the Goleyeith.

This would require a different approach, one that Roman was not used to. The soldiers needed to be protected, and so the Goleyeith needed to be distracted. The center of attention is usually a distraction for Roman to take advantage of when going in for the kill, not the role he filled. But this wasn't a raider camp being assaulted in the dead of night, it was a warzone. Roman decided to follow Morai's advice and looked to his most nearby partner. Quietly, he gave his companion direction. [b]"Eira, we need to confuse the Goleyeith. Move to another position and start shootin'!"[/b] Looking down to his shotgun, he considered whether he should remove the silencer to create more chaos for the Goleyeith. Before he could decide, a voice from the apartments got his attention.

[b]"HEY STINKBRAIN!"[/b] A third soldier was preparing to attack the Goleyeith as well.

Being shot from three different sides was enough to make sure the monster would reconsider its priorities, but would it be enough? Maybe what they needed was an act that would take the Goleyeith's ability to choose out of the equation completely. Grabbing his radio, he gave a warning to his fellow soldiers. [b]"Flashbang incoming! Cover your eyes!"[/b] Taking one his his two flashbangs and pulling the pin, Roman took a moment to aim and tried to throw it directly between the Goleyeith and the tank before closing his eyes.
